"Amphitrite, can you wait outside a moment?" Nikolai didn't want to make his father hesitant to discuss sensitive topics with her here.
"Yes, Master."
'She noticed?'
He watched her give a graceful bow, slipping her hand along his cheek, before she left the room with a loud bang.
"It seems that she listens to you at least, but be careful. Mermaids are nothing but sirens that lead men astray with their alluring charms!"
"Of course dad, now… can we discuss the actual issue?"
Nikolai watched his father's grim smirk. He knew this old man just wanted to cause trouble, but he couldn't deny the desire to learn more about the Nosferatu up close because their names popped up everywhere.
'It's almost like they're destined to become a plague.'
"Dad, about the hunt today… We found more corruption and another door."
"Another door?"
Ivan's silver eyes shone with an eerie light, almost as if he predicted something. Then, with a sigh, he placed a hand on Nikolai's shoulder.
